It’s no news that Olamide 7th studio album will be out on 17th of November, 2017. and pulse Nigeria has a given an insight clue on what’s on the album from track 1 to the last. Check track list HERE.
Check out summary of track below:
#LagosNawa is a 17-track album with only one previously released single #Wo
Track 1 – “Fenu Shey Street” sets the mood for the Lagos story. On a YoungJonn beat, Olamide reflects on his hustle through the years. The song speaks on the importance of his work ethic and ‘street smartness’ while asking for God’s favour as his journey continues. #LagosNawa
Track 2 – “Radio Lagos” continues the mood set by the track 1. A simple, drum-driven beat gives Olamide room to respond to critics of his lifestyle and choices, those he refers to as Radio Lagos.
Track 3 – “Yagaga” will remind fans of “Melo Melo”. On similar production, Olamide claims that his lover’s presence brings him good health. He invites her to hold, love and stay with him, forever.This is music for late nights with bae after dinner at a fancy Lagos restaurant
Track 4 – Olamide has numerous girls at his disposal but he only wants “The One”, he says on the album’s fourth track. The beat features a simple reggae bassline and Badoo asks his lover to ignore the haters as he’s ready to go the distance with her.
Track 5 – The tone has been moody so far, but on “Oro PawPaw”, Olamide gets to celebrating. ‘Oro PawPaw’ is street slang for a baseless statement, but despite those who “downgrade him”, he invites you to dance with him as success comes your way.
Track 6 – “Bend it over”. Olamide takes a delightful shot at the Sanko/Konto sound of the late 1990s/2000s, a clear nod to icons of that era like Baba Fryo. This one is specially made for the ladies to let loose. As always, Reminisce delivers a strong verse; this is Timaya’s turf though and he ends the track 6 on a high note.
Track 7 – If you’re one of those who manipulates young artistes in the Nigerian music industry, “Shine” is for you. The track is produced by none other than Baddo himself.
Track 8 – “SaysayMaley” is influenced by South African House music. An obvious party starter, Olamide tells the pretty ladies that he is ahead of his peers and invites them to get dancing.
Ok…It’s wobey time, people. Track 9 “Mo je dodo” sees Olamide appreciate Lagos’ beautiful women. He has been around the world but there are none like the women at home and this track is his way of saying they are appreciated.
On the title track #LagosNawa , Olamide captures the spirit of Lagos on a Monday evening after a long day of work. YoungJonn goes Afrobeat on this one; it drops you right in the middle of Ikorodu Road while Olamide asks if his money has come in
This album is sure to be a great one, Anticipate!!
